Waiting On Wednesday (47) Golden


Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking The Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we are eagerly anticipating.

My choice for this week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:

Golden by Jessi Kirby

Hardcover, 256 pages
Expected publication: May 14th 2013 by Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers

Synopsis From Goodreads:
Seventeen-year-old Parker Frost may be a distant relative of Robert Frost, but she has never taken the road less traveled. Valedictorian and quintessential good girl, she’s about to graduate high school without ever having kissed her crush or broken the rules. So when fate drops a mystery in her lap—one that might be the key to uncovering the truth behind a town tragedy, she decides to take a chance.

While I didn't absolutely LOVE In Honor, I still enjoyed it very much, so I am willing to give the author another chance. Plus, this is a contemporary - and we all know how much I love my contemporaries!

What are you waiting on this week?
